They just don't communicate using JSON. I can see it now; Kernel JSON (aka kjson) support in the Linux kernel to attract Node developers.

- jwandborg 4y agoJust take the Unix philosophy and replace the word "file" with "JSON file".
- skissane 4y agoSeriously I wish /proc was available as a tree of JSON documents as opposed to all these different ad hoc plain text formats. It would make using /proc a lot easier and more reliable
- jwandborg 4y agoCould be unnecessarily costly unless the files are written ahead-of-time. I propose some kind of GraphQL-like interface to only read what you need.
- skissane 4y ago/proc files are generated on-demand as you read them. Generating JSON couldn’t be significantly more costly than the current ad hoc plain text formats are
